14 ARM's Versatile Express platform were built as reference designs for exploring
15 multicore Cortex-A class systems. The Versatile Express family contains both
16 32 bit (Aarch32) and 64 bit (Aarch64) systems.
18 The board consist of a motherboard and one or more daughterboards (tiles). The
19 motherboard provides a set of peripherals. Processor and RAM "live" on the
22 The motherboard and each core tile should be described by a separate Device
23 Tree source file, with the tile's description including the motherboard file
24 using an include directive. As the motherboard can be initialized in one of
25 two different configurations ("memory maps"), care must be taken to include
28 When a new generation of boards were introduced under the name "Juno", these
29 shared to many common characteristics with the Versatile Express that the
30 "arm,vexpress" compatible was retained in the root node, and these are
31 included in this binding schema as well.
33 The root node indicates the CPU SoC on the core tile, and this
34 is a daughterboard to the main motherboard. The name used in the compatible
35 string shall match the name given in the core tile's technical reference
36 manual, followed by "arm,vexpress" as an additional compatible value. If
37 further subvariants are released of the core tile, even more fine-granular
38 compatible strings with up to three compatible strings are used.

46 in MPCore configuration in a test chip on the core tile. See ARM
47 DUI 0448I. This was the first Versatile Express platform.

51 - description: CoreTile Express A5x2 (V2P-CA5s) has 2 Cortex A5 CPU cores
52 in a test chip on the core tile. It is intended to evaluate NEON, FPU
53 and Jazelle support in the Cortex A5 family. See ARM DUI 0541C.

82 - description: Arm Versatile Express Juno "r0" (the first Juno board,
83 V2M-Juno) was introduced as a vehicle for evaluating big.LITTLE on
84 AArch64 CPU cores. It has 2 Cortex A57 CPU cores and 4 Cortex A53
85 cores in a big.LITTLE configuration. It also features the MALI T624
86 GPU. See ARM document 100113_0000_07_en.
90 - description: Arm Versatile Express Juno r1 Development Platform
91 (V2M-Juno r1) was introduced mainly aimed at development of PCIe
92 based systems. Juno r1 also has support for AXI masters placed on
93 the TLX connectors to join the coherency domain. Otherwise it is the
94 same configuration as Juno r0. See ARM document 100122_0100_06_en.
99 - description: Arm Versatile Express Juno r2 Development Platform
100 (V2M-Juno r2). It has the same feature set as Juno r0 and r1. See

125 ARM's unique board model ID, visible on the PCB's silkscreen.
128 description: As Versatile Express can be configured in number of physically
129 different setups, the device tree should describe platform topology.
130 For this reason the root node and main motherboard node must define this
131 property, describing the physical location of the children nodes.
132 0 means motherboard site, while 1 and 2 are daughterboard sites, and
133 0xf means "sisterboard" which is the site containing the main CPU tile.

158 "arm,vexpress,v2?-p1" sometimes (on software models) is is just
159 "simple-bus". If the compatible is placed in the "motherboard" node,
160 it is stricter and always has two compatibles.
